In vitro biofilm formation and antibiotic susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from airways of patients with cystic fibrosis

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the predominant cause of airway infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) as a result of its ability to form biofilm. Resistance to antimicrobial agents is the most important feature of biofilm infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate biofilm form...
